Yes, that's one problem (I solved it by copying the Sweave.sty into my  
texmf-local directory). Unfortunately, it does not solve my real  
problem, because the Sweave does work (--> the .tex-file is produced).

I agree - the problem should lie in the following portion of code in  
the Sweave.tmbundle:

run_tex () {
if [ "$TEX" != latexmk.pl ]
	then "$TEX" ${TM_LATEX_OPTIONS:=-interaction=nonstopmode -file-line- 
error-style} "$1"
	else "$TEX" -f -r "${TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT}/latexmkrc" "$1"
fi
}

# Compile.
run_tex "$FILE" 2>&1| latexErrWarnHtml.py -v


Unfortunately my skills are to limited to track the error ... maybe  
someone else has an idea?

Best regards,
Felix
